Nintendo Download: Snip Your Way Out of the Top Doom Party and Rocket into L.A.

Yes, that’s an unwieldy title. Thing is though, it’s not that easy to wedge in all the big games hitting the Switch this week and next.

Too. Many. Games

The Switch has been a busy little console these past few weeks, and that trend continues this week. Sure there’ve been a lot of chaff surrounding the bigger launches, but overall it’s been a great few months for Nintendo’s latest console.

It’s so packed this week that Nintendo even had to resort to that… odd headline. Yeah, that’s from them, not us. So don’t give me any lip over it.

So what’s so great this week? How ’bout Doom, L.A. Noire, Rocket League,Mario Party, Snipperclips DLC, Batman- The Telltale Series, and LEGO Marvel Superheroes 2. Even the “smaller releases” are pretty big this week with the likes of RiME, Octodad, and even freaking Uno all landing on the system.

Yeah, it’s a gigantic week.

Here’s what’s new in total:
